Volunteer Recruitment Administrator

St Nicholas Hospice Care has more than 400 volunteers who dedicate their time, skills and energy to help us thrive as an organisation. With the recent exciting appointment of a Volunteer Coordinator, and to advocate volunteering within our own team, we would like to recruit two volunteers to support the administration aspects of volunteer recruitment. One role will support the onboarding of retail volunteers and be based at Barton Road, the other will support non-retail volunteers and be based at the main Hospice site. The role will require a commitment to fulfil a half day shift each week.

Key Responsibilities
• Post volunteer role opportunities
• Respond to volunteer applications and enquiries
• Conduct pre volunteering checks i.e. DBS
• Maintain volunteer records and databases

What We’re Looking For
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• Confidence using email, spreadsheets, and basic admin systems
• A warm, approachable manner and a passion for volunteering
• Previous admin or HR experience (voluntary or paid) is helpful but not essential

What You’ll Gain
• Experience in volunteer management within a hospice setting
• The chance to be part of a dedicated and innovative team
• Training and ongoing support
• A reference for future employment or volunteering opportunities

We would welcome applications from existing volunteers looking for a new challenge, or from those new to the organisation.

For an informal chat or to submit an expression of interest, please contact Pamela Luna, Volunteer Coordinator at pamela.luna@stnh.org.uk.

Closing date: Friday 03 October 2025
